Historic racist tweets from Trish
 
I'm kinda reluctant to post this but seriously even though these are mostly a decade ago they're pretty disgusting and disappointing. Appreciate she wouldn't still think this but she was in her 20s when she made these tweets. I'm surprised BB didn't realise and she still made the show











Edit - I won't post them all but there are numerous tweets that have been revealed now which are disparaging to various different communities. We're talking dozens of tweets here across many years

Edit 2 - the Metro is the first publication to publish a story on it: https://metro.co.uk/2023/11/11/big-b...face-19810224/

Digging up decade-old tweets is almost always more cringey and embarrassing than the tweets themselves.

That said, people have been getting "cancelled" over that sort of thing for people entering the public eye to have some basic opsec, to the point where it's her own fault.

I don't necessarily disagree, I read it elsewhere and really wasn't sure whether to repost it but did so because:

- it'll probably blow up a bit now it's out there
- people have been ejected from the show for historic tweets
- it shows BB didn't really comb housemates social media properly
- even though they're old she should still take accountability for it

it puts into context the number of times she cried racism toward her during the show

GlitterUK 11-11-2023 05:12 PM

I am shocked never expected that, guess her account was hacked back then that's the usual excuse.

Surely BB check all social media accounts prior these days? I am shocked they were not found whilst she was on the show.

Very unfortunate, but not surprising. People who cling hard to anti-Racist dogma as an explanation for society's ills are the first to perpetuate their ideals towards other races and cultures. (Basically they're not anti- at all...just indoctrinated)

I agree with Oliver, that she should not be ostracized for it and it's her human right to share controversial views. But again, a reminder we should never post things we would never want to be recirculated in the future. ANd also that Twitter is still a cesspool even if it's been renamed. And also, there's no such as privacy online.

The first one is recent enough to be relevant. I'd say the others are just really bad decisions in the past, but because of the first, it's now all in question... anyway, it's not that much of a shock to me.

my God

Oh so Miss Leftie Liberal Feminist ain’t what she was advertising.. she probably one of those that think black people can’t be racist too. But yeah she’s disgusting for that sh1t

Crimson Dynamo 11-11-2023 05:23 PM

That is some serious and nasty racism

really disgusting stuff

GlitterUK 11-11-2023 05:23 PM

It certainly takes things in a different direction!

They should do more screening before giving people a platform.

Benjamin 11-11-2023 05:31 PM

Not one to defend this, but have they been confirmed as actually by Trish?

Yeah but people can change names, photos etc. just want sure if had been verified as Trish’s

MTVN 11-11-2023 05:44 PM

It's being treated as her account by all the BB sites so I'm pretty sure it is her

There are actually more disparaging tweets about Asians on there as well including the use of the word 'chinky'

Fair enough. Then yeah, not going to go down well. And to think people almost made her win.

I believe she has developed a new understanding of Chinese culture and people due to Yinrun which is good, but yeah if the posts are true then eek. Surely if you’re going on TV you’d delete your old tweets like that? (Can you do that? I don’t have twitter)

Also surprises me these came out a day after she’s evicted. You’d think whoever brought these to the attention would have done a few days ago to ruin her chances.

AnnieK 11-11-2023 05:46 PM

Disappointing

Yinrun will be devastated to see some of these :(

Yeah you can delete tweets and I'm amazed she didn't after what happened to Ellis in BB19

I think her profile was private before today so no one could have searched for anything

ebandit 11-11-2023 05:55 PM

...............this is so 'trish'..............................lecturing others 'cos she cares so much

Yikes.

When it comes to twitter maybe she's a "fire and forget" type. Even if she changed over the years and no longer thinks that way, you'd thihk she'd prune her old tweets.

She's too intelligent and there's been too many recent consequences for her not to know they'd come to light. Which makes me think, unfortunately, that she may still not see the problem with them:(

Oh come on. You'd say before anyone else that words cannot be violent.

Jessica. 11-11-2023 06:15 PM

I am extremely disappointed in Trish. It's a shame some of the people condemning her haven't been condemning all racism during the entirety of the series.

MTVN 11-11-2023 06:32 PM

Trish has made her account private now and presumably deleting the tweets

Too little too late now. People defo would have g got screen shots of them,

Liam- 11-11-2023 06:34 PM

You can almost guarantee that the people digging into all this and trying to ruin any chance of a career for her after the show will be the exact ones always banging on about cancel culture and wokeness ruining society, but jump at the chance to try and ruin a black womans life
